Pros

The office design encouraged and facilitated imaginative thinking, leading to increased innovation and new ideas. This, in turn, resulted in higher levels of job satisfaction and overall contentment among employees.

Cons

The CEO's intemperate behavior and loathsome attitude have severely impacted the company's morale, causing a decline in employee motivation and hampering growth. This has resulted in a stifling company culture lacking in innovation and strong leadership, causing further harm to the company's prospects.

Primary Arms Response

Hello & thank you for your feedback. We're disappointed to hear that your experience with Primary Arms was one of dissatisfaction. We love to hear the ideas of our employees, but we realize expressing those ideas to the right people can be challenging at times. In an effort to simplify that process we now have Town Hall Meetings every quarter where our CEO visits each department individually & gives them an update on all things PA. Mr. Lerner discusses where the company has exceled, what our goals are for the next quarter & where we're having the most difficulty & need improvement. There is a Q & A session at the end of each Town Hall meeting where employees have an opportunity to speak directly to our CEO & address any issues, bring up new ideas, & ask any additional questions they may have. Along with Town Hall Meetings we've ramped up our employee engagement activities; Snow Cone Day, Taco Tuesday, catered BBQ lunches, & we're currently in the process of planning a health fair where employees can speak directly with health care professionals regarding their physical & mental health. Our employees are our top priority & we're putting forth every effort to let them know we hear them, we see them, & most importantly we appreciate them. If you'd like to discuss offline you can reach us at hr@primaryarms.com

Pros

There are some people that make the day better and there if free coffee

Cons

Pay is low for what I was asked to work on and title vs work being done isn't valid either the whole 4 years i was there i got a total of 1.25 cent raise from my start pay, you constantly have to remind people to do their job but get jumpped on if your work isnt done, also they hired a new upper to take over and make things "efficient" but they have changed weekly pay to bi weekly, took away hybird work, and layed off alot of people to save cost, also they have a new policy where if you a minute late you get a point and after so many points you get fired, also growth here is not real it doesn't matter what you do to improve things it gets a thanks and never gets you anywhere so I the long run its like what's the point in even trying to do something good it gets brushed under the mat anyways.
